Free Consultation & Manuscript Review
It starts with a conversation. Share your manuscript and your goals, and we’ll tell you honestly what your book needs, how long it will take and what it will cost, before you commit to anything.

Your editor works through structure, flow and detail across up to five editing rounds, with one-to-one consultations so you understand every suggestion and stay in control of your voice.
Cover Design
Our designers create a bespoke cover that signals your genre at a glance and still reads clearly as a tiny online thumbnail. You review concepts and request changes until it feels right.
Formatting & Typesetting
Your interior is typeset for paperback, hardback and eBook, with clean chapter openings, linked contents and files that display properly on every device.
ISBN, Print & Distribution
We set up your ISBN and metadata, prepare print-on-demand editions and release your book to major online retailers in print and digital formats.
